rLoop – The Power of Crowdsourced Engineering

The presentation will be around decentralising high-technology, and how that will help overcome the innovation bottleneck. Breanna will talk about how the idea of decentralising high technology led to the creation and evolution of rLoop, and how we’ve worked as a globally-distributed crowdsourced community of over 1,200, working on projects such as the hyperloop, human flight devices, and executing advanced engineering projects from concept ideation to design and prototyping resulting in processes for the future of work. rLoop is a blockchain-powered innovation platform and community that allows people to work on highly technological projects, with a focus on engineering and hardware. This leads to a discussion of how all industries can utilize the blockchain to create radical breakthroughs for the benefit of humanity.
